Comprehensive Policing and Justice Reform Technical Second Emergency Amendment Act of 2024

This emergency bill amends the District of Columbia's police complaint system to strengthen oversight and accountability. It expands the Police Complaints Board from five to nine members, ensuring representation from each of the city's wards and requiring that board members have no ties to law enforcement. Additionally, it grants the Office of Police Complaints' Executive Director the authority to file their own complaints if they discover evidence of police misconduct, such as excessive force or failure to intervene, that was not originally reported by a citizen. A separate provision clarifies that certain legal protections regarding sexual assault victims specifically apply only to those under the age of 18.
